EXTRACTION DENTIST Concord, NH
Treating issues early prevents pain, infection, and bone loss
Oral surgery covers a wide range of treatments that extend beyond routine fillings and cleanings. At Wall Street Dental Group we recommend surgical care only when it is the healthiest path forward. Common reasons include impacted wisdom teeth that threaten alignment, severe infections that cannot be resolved with medication alone, cysts or benign growths inside bone, and preparation for dental implants or orthodontics.
Leaving these concerns untreated can allow bacteria to spread into the bloodstream, weaken bone, or create chronic discomfort in the jaw joints and muscles. Impacted teeth often press against neighboring roots, causing decay in places that are hard to reach with a toothbrush. Deep infections form pockets of pus that erode bone and can move into the sinus or neck spaces if not removed.
Oral surgery also supports restorative success. If a tooth has fractured beneath the gum line or carries a vertical crack, gentle removal protects adjacent teeth and opens room for a durable replacement such as an implant or bridge. When bone has been lost over many years, a small graft placed during surgery rebuilds thickness so future implants sit in solid support.
During your consultation our surgeon studies three dimensional cone beam scans, high definition photographs, and your medical history. We explain all findings in plain language, outline benefits, review any alternatives, and respect your comfort level with each option. Every decision is guided by current evidence, many years of surgical experience, and your personal goals for health, appearance, and lifestyle.
ORAL SURGERY Concord, NH
Precision planning, gentle technique, and calming care at every step
Accurate imaging is the cornerstone of safe surgery. We capture a digital cone beam scan that reveals bone contours, nerve pathways, and sinus borders in detailed slices. Using these images we create a virtual blueprint, choose implant dimensions if needed, and design a custom printed guide that directs angles and depth with millimeter accuracy. Planning in advance shortens the actual procedure and lowers risk.
Comfort begins with clear communication. We describe the sensations you will feel, answer questions, and set realistic expectations for time in the chair and healing. Local anesthetic is delivered slowly and precisely so tissue becomes fully numb without pressure or sting. For patients who prefer deeper calm we can prescribe an oral medication that you take under the supervision of a companion.
Our team works with small, well sharpened instruments that require minimal force. For extractions we separate ligaments and elevate the tooth along its natural path instead of forcing it. When a tooth is buried in bone we create a conservative opening and section the tooth into smaller pieces, limiting strain on jaws and soft tissue. When placing implants we use a guided sleeve that positions the drill precisely, preventing heat buildup and protecting adjacent roots.
High volume suction keeps the site free of debris while a cool sterile water spray reduces temperature and rinses the field. Most extractions or implant placements finish in thirty minutes once anesthesia is complete, which reduces fatigue and swelling.
Before you leave we place dissolving sutures if needed, apply a soft gauze pad for gentle bite pressure, and provide an ice pack that attaches with an easy wrap. Written and digital after‑care instructions review every detail from food choices to sleeping posture. You also receive our after‑hours phone number in case questions arise later in the evening.

Detailed guidance and modern follow up help you heal quickly and protect investment
First twenty four hours
Rest is the most valuable medicine. Keep your head elevated, apply ice in short intervals, and eat cool soft foods such as yogurt, scrambled eggs, or blended soups. Avoid spitting or using a straw because suction can disturb the forming clot. Take prescribed or over the counter pain relief on schedule rather than waiting for discomfort to return.
Day two and three
Mild swelling often peaks on day two. Continue light ice if still puffy, add gentle warm saltwater rinses to soothe tissue, and start brushing other teeth normally. Most patients resume desk work and light activities at this stage. If stitches feel loose or a sharp edge irritates the tongue, call us; a quick adjustment brings relief.
Week one
We schedule a short review visit to remove any non dissolving sutures, check bite alignment if an implant was placed, and ensure tissue is closing smoothly. Many patients return fully to regular eating by the end of the week, though hard nuts or crunchy snacks should still wait if large bone grafts were placed.
Month one and beyond
For implant cases we monitor bone integration with a miniature torque test or low dose radiograph. Once bone and implant have fused, usually by three months, we move on to the custom crown or bridge stage. After extraction, bone continues to fill in for several weeks; if an implant is planned later we set your recheck visits to match that timeline.
Protective habits for long life
Brush twice daily with a soft brush, floss gently once incisions close, and use an antimicrobial rinse if recommended. Avoid chewing on ice or pens, and wear a custom night guard if you grind. Athletes should add a mouthguard to cushion blows on the field. Regular cleanings every six months let us polish around implant posts with special instruments that will not scratch titanium and confirm bone remains solid.

JAW SURGERY Concord, NH
Have questions? We have the answers!
Yes, if you choose local anesthesia or laughing gas. If you take prescription sedation medication you will need a trusted companion to drive and stay with you for the rest of the day.
Most swelling peaks on the second day and improves steadily over the next three to five days. Consistent ice, elevated rest, and following our instructions shorten recovery time.
Light desk work is often fine the next day, while physically demanding jobs may require two or three days of rest. We write notes for employers or schools upon request.
Many surgical extractions, bone grafts, and implant placements receive partial benefits under Delta Dental and other plans. Our administrative team submits a pre authorization so you see exact coverage and co‑pay amounts before scheduling.
